     Synthesis 
     The preparation of 1-benzyloxy-4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine and 1-cyclohexyloxy-2,2,6,6-piperidin-4-one is described by J.F.W. Keana et al, J. Org. Chem, 36, 209 (1971) and DW Grattan et al, Poly. Degrad Stability, 1979, 69. 
     N-Methoxypiperidine derivatives are synthesized by reaction of an appropriate N-oxyl precursor with methyl radicals generated by the thermolysis of di-tert-butyl peroxide in an inert solvent such as chlorobenzene. 
     N-Hydroxypiperidines, prepared by the oxidation of a hindered amine with a hydroperoxide and metal oxide catalyst (U.S. Pat. No. 4,665,185) followed by catalytic hydrogenation (copending Pat. application Ser. No. 099,418) now abandoned, are alkylated by reaction with sodium hydride and an alkyl iodide as taught by T. Kurumada et al, J. Poly Sci, Poly Chem. Ed, 23, 1477 (1985). 
     The preferred method of generation of N-hydrocarbyloxypiperidine derivatives of higher molecular weight hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane or ethylbenzene is the thermal reaction of a hydrocarbon solution of the hindered amine or its N-oxyl derivative with tert-butyl hydroperoxide and a metal oxide catalyst (copending Pat. application Ser. No. 259,949) now abandoned. 
     The 4-alkylamino derivatives of 1-hydrocarbyloxy piperidines are prepared by the reductive amination of the corresponding 4-oxopiperidine using sodium cyanoborohydride or catalytic hydrogenation. 
     U.S. Pat. No. 4,661,594 teaches the reaction of 4-amino- and 4-hydroxypiperidine derivatives with phosphochloridites in the presence of an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or toluene and a base such as triethylamine. Azaphosphochloridites and diazaphosphochloridites containing N-piperidyl substituents are prepared by reductive amination of 4-oxopiperidine with the appropriate diamine or aminoalcohol followed by reaction with phosphorus trichloride. 
     The intermediates required to prepare the instant compounds are largely items of commerce. 
     Although the instant application emphasizes the 2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidine structure, it is to be noted that the invention also relates to compounds wherein the following tetraalkyl substituted piperazine or piperazinone moieties are substituted for the above-noted tetraalkylpiperidine moiety: ##STR5## wherein M and Y are independently methylene or carbonyl, preferably M being methylene and Y being carbonyl It is understood that the identified substituents applicable to such compounds are those which are appropriate for substitution on the ring nitrogen atoms.

     Of particular interest is the utilization of the instant derivatives in a variety of coating systems including ambient cured and acid catalyzed coating systems. In particular, the physical integrity of the coatings is maintained to a higher degree with significant reduction in loss of gloss and yellowing. Key improvements include the substantial absence of the cure retardation encountered with N-alkyl hindered amine light stabilizers; the substantial absence of flocculation and dispersion destabilization seen when N-alkyl hindered amines are utilized in certain piqmented coating systems and the absence of adhesion loss between the coating and polycarbonate substrate. Accordingly, the present invention also relates to the use of the instant compounds, optionally together with further stabilizers, for stabilizing ambient cured coatings based on alkyd resins; thermoplastic acrylic resins; acrylic alkyls; acrylic alkyd or polyester resins optionally modified with silicon, isocyanates, isocyanurates, ketimines or oxazolidines; and epoxide resins crosslinked with carboxylic acids, anhydrides, polyamines or mercaptans; and acrylic and polyester resin systems modified with reactive groups in the backbone thereof and crosslinked with epoxides; against the degradative effects of light, moisture and oxygen 
     Furthermore, in their industrial uses, enamels with high solids content based on crosslinkable acrylic, polyester, urethane or alkyd resins are cured with an additional acid catalyst Light stabilizers containing a basic nitrogen group are generally less than satisfactory in this application. Formation of a salt between the acid catalyst and the light stabilizer leads to incompatibility or insolubility and precipitation of the salt and to a reduced level of cure and to reduced light protective action and poor resistance to moisture. 
     These acid catalyzed stoving lacquers are based on hot crosslinkable acrylic, polyester, polyurethane, polyamide or alkyd resins The acrylic resin lacquers, which can be stabilized against light, moisture and oxygen in accordance with the invention, are the conventional acrylic resin stoving lacquers or thermosetting resins including acrylic/melamine systems which are described, for example, in H. Kittel&#39;s &#34;Lehrbuch der Lacke und Beschichtungen&#34;, Vol 1 Par 2, on pages 735 and 742 (Berlin 1972), &#34;Lackkunstharze&#34; (1977), by H Wagner and H.F. Sarx, on pages 229-238, and in S Paul&#39;s &#34;Surface Coatings: Science and Technology&#34; (1985). 
     The polyester lacquers, which can be stabilized against the action of light and moisture, are the conventional stoving lacquers described e.g. in H. Wagner and H.F. Sarx, op. cit., on pages 86-99. 
     The alkyd resin lacquers which can be stabilized against the action of light and moisture in accordance with the invention, are the conventional stoving lacquers which are used in particular for coating automobiles (automobile finishing lacquers), for example lacquers based on alkyd/melamine resins and alkyd/acrylic/melamine resi (see H. Wagner and H F. Sarx, op. cit., pages 99-123). Other crosslinking agents include glycoluril resins, blocked isocyanates or epoxy resins. 
     The acid catalyzed stoving lacquers stabilized in accordance with the invention are suitable both for metal finish coatings and solid shade finishes, especially in the case of retouching finishes, as well s various coil coating applications The lacquers stabilized in accordance with the invention are preferably applied in the conventional manner by two methods, either by the single-coat method or by the two-coat method In the latter method, the pigment-containing base coat is applied first and then a covering coat of clear lacquer over it. 
     It is also to be noted that the instant substituted hindered amines are applicable for use in non-acid catalyzed thermoset resins such as epoxy, epoxy-polyester, vinyl, alkyd, acrylic and polyester resins, optionally modified with silicon, isocyanates or isocyanurates. The epoxy and epoxy-polyester resins are crosslinked with conventional crosslinkers such as acids, acid anhydrides, amines, and the like. 
     Correspondingly, the epoxide may be utilized as the crosslinking agent for various acrylic or polyester resin systems that have been modified by the presence of reactive groups on the backbone structure. 
     To attain maximum light stability in such coatings, the concurrent use of other conventional light stabilizers can be advantageous. Examples are the aforementioned UV absorbers of the benzophenone, benzotriazole, acrylic acid derivative, or oxanilide type, or aryl-s-triazines or metal-containing light stabilizers, for example organic nickel compounds. In two-coat systems, these additional light stabilizers can be added to the clear coat and/or the pigmented base coat. 
     If such combinations are employed, the sum of all light stabilizers is 0.2 to 20% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 5% by weight, based on the film-forming resin. 
     Examples of different classes of UV absorbers which may be used in the instant compositions in conjunction with the aforementioned piperidine compounds are referenced in a paper by H. J. Heller in European Polymer Journal Supplement, 1969, pp. 105-132. These classes include the phenyl salicylates, the o-hydroxybenzophenones, the hydroxyxanthones, the benzoxazoles, the benzimidazoles, the oxadiazoles, the triazoles, the pyrimidines, the chinazolines, the s-triazines, the hydroxyphenyl-benzotriazoles, the alpha-cyanoacrylates and the benzoates. 
     Types of UV absorbers of especial importance are: 
     (a) 2-(2&#39;-Hydroxyphenyl)-benzotriazoles, for example, the 5&#39;-methyl-, 3&#39;,5&#39;-di-tert-butyl-, 5&#39;-tert-butyl-, 5&#39;-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)-, 5-chloro-3&#39;,5&#39;-di-tert-butyl-, 5-chloro-3&#39;-tert-butyl-5&#39;-methyl-, 3&#39;-sec-butyl-5&#39;-tert-butyl-, 4&#39;-octoxy-, and 3&#39;,5&#39;-di-tert-amyl derivatives. 
     (b) 2-Hydroxy-benzophenones, for example, the 4-hydroxy-, 4-methoxy-, 4-octoxy-, 4-decyloxy-, 4-dodecyloxy-, 4-benzyloxy, 4,2&#39;,4&#39;-trihydroxy- and 2&#39;-hydroxy-4,4&#39;-dimethoxy derivatives. 
     (c) Acrylates, for example, alpha-cyano-β,β-diphenylacrylic acid ethyl ester or isoctyl ester alpha-carbo-methoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester, alpha-cyano-β-methyl-p-methoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester or butyl ester alpha-carbomethoxy-p-methoxy-cinnamic acid methyl ester, N-(β-carbomethoxy-β-cyanovinyl)-2-methyl-indoline. 
     (d) Nickel compounds, for example, nickel complexes of 2,2&#39;-thiobis-[4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)-phenol], such as the 1:1 or 1:2 complex, optionally with additional ligands such as n-butylamine, triethanolamine or N-cyclo-hexyl-diethanolamie, nickel dibutyldithiocarbamate, nickel salts of 4-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-butylbenzylphosphonic acid monoalkyl esters, such as of the methyl, ethyl or butyl ester, nickel complexes of ketoximes such as of 2-hydroxy4-methyl-phenyl undecyl ketonoxime, nickel complexes of 1-phenyl-4-lauroyl-5-hydroxy-pyrazol, optionally with additional ligands. 
     (e) Oxalic acid diamides, for example, 4,4&#39;-di-octyloxyoxanilide, 2,2&#39;-di-octyloxy-5,5&#39;-di-tert-butyl-oxanilide, 2,2&#39;-di-dodecyloxy-5,5&#39;-di-tert-butyl-oxanilide, 2-ethoxy-2&#39;-ethyl-oxanilide, N,N&#39;-bis-(3-dimethylamino-propyl)-oxalamide, 2-ethoxy-5-tert-butyl-2&#39;-ethyl-oxanilide and its mixture with 2-ethoxy-2&#39;-ethyl-5,4&#39;-di-tert-butyloxanilide and its mixtures of ortho- and para-methoxy- as well as of o- and p-ethoxy-disubstituted oxanilides. 
     (f) Hydroxyphenyl-s-triazines such as 2,6-bis(2,4-dimethylphenyl) -4-(2-hydroxy-4-octyloxyphenyl)-s-triazine or the corresponding 4-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl) derivative. 
     Of particular value in the instant compositions are the benzotriazoles of high molecular weight and low volatility such as 2-[2-hydroxy-3,5-di(alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzyl)-phenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-octylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-alpha, alpha-dimethylbenzyl-5-tert-octyl-phenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3-tert-octyl-5-alpha,alpha-dimethylbenzylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-amylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-(omega-hydroxy-octa-(ethyleneoxy) carbonyl)-ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, dodecylated 2-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-octyloxy-carbonyl)ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole and the 5-chloro compounds corresponding to each of the above named benzotriazoles. 
     Most preferably the benzotriazoles useful in the instant compositions are 2-[2-hydroxy-3,5-di(alpha,alpha-dimethyl-benzyl)phenyl]-2H-benzotriazole, dodecylated 2-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole, 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-(omega-hydroxy-octa-(ethyleneoxy) carbonyl)-ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole 2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-octyl-oxycarbonyl) ethylphenyl]-2H-benzotriazole and 5-chloro-2-[2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-(2-octyloxycarbonyl)ethylphenyl] -2H-benzotriazole. 
     It is also contemplated that the instant compounds will be particularly effective as stabilizers for polyolefin fibers, especially polypropylene fibers, when used in conjunction with other stabilizers selected from the group consisting of the phenolic antioxidants, hindered amine light stabilizers, organic phosphorus compounds, ultraviolet absorbers and mixtures thereof. 
     A preferred embodiment of the instant invention pertains to stabilized compositions comprising 
     (a) an acid catalyzed thermoset coating or enamel based on hot crosslinkable acrylic, polyester or alkyd resins, 
     (b) a NOE-substituted 2,2,6,6-tetraalkylpiperidine compound, and 
     (c) a UV absorber selected from the group consisting of the benzophenones, benzotriazoles, acrylic acid derivatives, organic nickel compounds, aryl-s-triazines and oxanilides. 
     Further ingredients which the enamels or coatings can contain are antioxidants, for example those of the sterically hindered phenol derivatives, phosphorus compounds, such as phosphites, phosphines or phosphonites, plasticizers, levelling assistants, hardening catalysts, thickeners, dispersants or adhesion promoters. 
     A further preferred embodiment of the instant invention is a stabilized composition containing components (a), (b) and (c) described above which additionally contains as component (d) a phosphite or phosphonite. 
     The amount of phosphite or phosphonite (d) which is used in the instant compositions is from 0.05 to 2% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 1% by weight, based on the film forming resin. In two-coat systems, these stabilizers may be added to the clear coat and/or base coat. 
     Typical phosphite and phosphonites include triphenyl phosphite, diphenylalkyl phosphites, phenyldialkyl phosphites, tri-(nonylphenyl)phosphite, trilauryl phosphite trioctadecyl phosphite, di-stearyl-pentaerythritol diphosphite, tris-(2,4-di-tert.butylphenyl) phosphite, di-isodecylpentaerythritol diphosphite, di-(2,4-di-tert.butylphenyl)pentaerythritol diphosphite, tristearyl-sorbitol triphosphite, tetrakis-(2,4-di-tert.butylphenyl)-4,4&#39;-diphenylylenediphosphonite. 
     The acid catalyzed thermoset enamels must be stabilized in order to function acceptably in end-use applications. The stabilizers used are hindered amines, preferably those substituted on the N-atom by an inert blocking group in order to prevent precipitation of the basic amine stabilized with the acid catalyst with a concomitant retardation in cure, optionally in combination with UV absorbers, such as the benzotriazoles, benzophenones, substituted s-triazines, phenyl benzoates or oxanilides. 
     The stabilizers are needed to impart greater retention of durability to the cured enamels (as measured by 20° gloss, distinction of image, cracking or chalking); the stabilizers must not retard cure (normal bake for auto finishes at 121° C. and low bake repair at 82° C. (as measured by hardness, adhesion, solvent resistance and humidity resistance), the enamel should not yellow on curing and further color change on exposure to light should be minimized; the stabilizers should be soluble in the organic solvents normally used in coating applications such as methyl amyl ketone, xylene, n-hexyl acetate, alcohol and the like. 
     The instant hindered amine light stabilizers substituted on the N-atom by an O -substituted moiety fulfill each of these requirements and provide alone or in combination with a UV-absorber outstanding light stabilization protection to the cured acid catalyzed thermoset enamels. 
     Still another preferred combination of the instant stabilizers is with a hydroxylamine in order to protect polypropylene fibers from gas fading. 
     The following examples are presented for the purpose of illustration only and are not to be construed to limit the nature or scope of the instant invention in any manner whatsoever.

     EXAMPLE 26 
     Stabilization of a Flexible High Solids Thermoset Acrylic Resin Enamel 
     A thermoset acrylic enamel based on a binder made from 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, styrene and acrylic acid and modified with a polyester urethane and with a melamine resin and an acid catalyst is formulated to include a 2H-benzotriazole UV abseorber and a hindered amine light stabilizer. 
     Commercially available epoxy resin primed 4 in×12 in 10.16 cm×30.48 cm) panels (Uniprime from Advanced Coatings Technology,) are spray coated with a silver metallic basecoat to a thickness of about 0.8 mil (0.023 mm) and air dried for three minutes. Prior to application, the basecoat is stabilized with 1% (by weight) each of 2-(2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-amylphenyl)-2H-benzotriazole and of bis(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzyl) 2-butyl-2(1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-ylmalonate based on the solid resin. The stabilized thermoset acrylic resin enamel is then sprayed onto the basecoated panel to a thickness of about 2 mil (0.05 mm). After air drying for fifteen minutes, the coated sheets are baked for 30 minutes at 250° F. (121° C.). 
     After storage for 1 week in a air-conditioned room, the coated panels are subjected to weathering in a QUV exposure apparaturs according to test method ASTM G-53/77.  In this test, the samples are subjected to weathering in repeated cycles for 4 hours in a humid atmosphere at 50° C. and then for 8 hours under UV light at 70° C. The 20° gloss values of the panels are determined at various intervals as reported in the table below.

     EXAMPLE 28 
     A white PVC plastisol coil coating is stabilized with the indicated amounts of UV absorber and instant stabilizer (% by weight based on the total resin solids). The additives are first dissolved in an aromatic solvent, then incorporated into the resin using a high speed disperser. The coatings are deaerated before application. 
     Application is by an 8 mil gap square drawdown bar over a phenolic primer on 4 inch×12 inch (10.16 cm×30.48 cm) galvanized steel panels to dry to a film thickness of 2.5-3.5 mils. The coatings are baked at an oven temperature of550° F. (288° C.) for 80 seconds to a peak metal temperature of 400° F. (204° C.), then quenched in cold water. The coated panels are weathered in a QUV exposure apparatus for 1944 hours using 340A bulbs and a cycle of 8 hours UV light at 60° C. alternating with 4 hours of darkness (condensing humidity) at 50° C.
